"We fully support your ongoing efforts to achieve a ceasefire and then negotiate a fair, just and lasting peace. Ukraine should be in the best position to deal with such an end to this conflict, Ukraine should have a seat at the table when these decisions are made," he said at a press conference with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Oslo.

According to the Prime Minister, Norway highly values ​​Ukraine's interaction with the United States and President Donald Trump, as well as communications with European and NATO partners.

"We believe that a strong European voice is important when discussing the future of Ukraine," he stressed.
